Well, I don't have a use only once clause because my backups are smaller than the tape size itself. I can squeeze two or maybe 3 full server backups onto a single 100gig tape. However when the tape is marked Full, it will not be used anymore. > If that doesn't work out, then the correct way to force the volstatus is to > invoke the bconsole update command, e.g. > > echo 'update media volume=Daily002 volstatus=Used' | bconsole > > This requires that you know the volume name. It is possible for me to do a single file backup, and have a Run After Command that does this perhaps. Does this seem logical: Run After Job = /etc/bacula/markfull %v where /etc/bacula/markfull expects a volume name as an argument and issues a command to bconsole using this? -- Jesse Keating GameHouse -- Systems Engineer ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
